The dynamics of peer participation, or churn, are an inherent property of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems and critical for design and evaluation. Accurately characterizing churn requir...
This paper presents an energy-conservation method for multiple disks and their cache memory. Our method periodically resizes the cache memory and controls the rotation speeds unde...
Securing multicast communications in ad hoc networks has become one of the most challenging research directions in the areas of wireless networking and security. This is especiall...

In this paper, we analyze a wireless LAN hot-spot, based on the IEEE 802.11b protocol, and more specifically we address the issue of defining proper pricing strategies, from bot...
Wireless 802.11 hotspots have grown in an uncoordinated fashion with highly variable deployment densities. Such uncoordinated deployments, coupled with the difficulty of implemen...
